It's a small hobby project, probably a one-man show.  There's no need
to shit on it reflexively purely because of that.

Who cares?

I doubt the project is to overtake Debian. Any open source project
that makes it to release is a success in my eyes.

Someone had a vision and ambition enough to do it. Regardless of its
time being maintained, someone is doing something that they want to do
in FOSS and isn’t that what it’s all about?
